Requirements
--------------------------------
The following packages *MUST* be installed in order for Gramps to work:
Python 2.5 or greater
PyGTK2 2.12 or greater
Python Glade bindings
librsvg2 (svg icon view)
xdg-utils

GraphViz Enable creation of graphs using GraphViz engine
http://www.graphviz.org
The following packages are *STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* to be installed:
python-webkit Enable html rendering for Geographic view and Web view
Be careful, webkit is always in a development phase.
If you get crashes, remove python-webkit and add the
gecko package instead.
or
python-gtkmozembed is the gecko equivalent to webkit which is more stable.
It can be python-gnome2-extras or python-gtkhtml2
depending on distributions.

Documentation
---------------------------------
The User Manual is now maintained on the gramps website,
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=User_manual
We might in the future distribute again a manual via gnome-doc-utils, this has not
been decided yet though.
Building on non-Linux systems: i18n support and GNU make
--------------------------------------------------------
If make fails, use gmake (the name FreeBSD gives to GNU make) instead.
You might need a patch also. FreeBSD has in ports a patch ( /usr/ports/science/gramps/files)
you need to apply to po/Makefile.in.in
